Mitre, Royal Mile, Edinburgh

Sat on the High Street this large windowed pub has many traditional features and because of its position the Mitre can be a great place to sit and watch the 'Royal Mile' tourists and shoppers if a table outside becomes available.

Even if the meal was good - the stuff was really terrible and the times - full card till 10 pm, open till 1 am arent real.

The only thing you get after 9pm is chips and you'll get kicked on the street an 12 pm at the latest

Entertainment

Whenever i get the chance to visit Edinburgh i always call in. the entertainment (G E Pearson) is second to none. the pub is friendly and lively without being overly noisy. Keep up the good work Mr Pearson

Good traditional pub with decent beer and lively atmosphere. Graeme Pearson live act was good and barmaids pleasant even though overworked. I would definitely go back when in Edinburgh. Good extensive menu although did not eat there.

Nice pub

Was here back in March on vacation (from the States). Bartenders were quiet, but quick. Only problem was the large groups of Americans wandering in, leaving the door open, ordering Scotch, and not liking it.

Great Pub and Food

Had dinner twice at the Mitre and the food was good as well as the drinks. Friendly staff and customers.

Graeme E. Pearson on monday night

Stopped in with three friends from Texas to give them a taste of Scotland even though we ate at home first. Great banter with Graeme E. Pearson and he can sing a bit too. I'll be back

One to miss

Where to begin?Terrible service from uninterestedm, rude staff - Thrash metal music on the Royal Mile not really sure that works as what few other customers were as baffled as us?The place smelt awful a mix of stale beer and rotten grease. The open kitchen on view was untidy and looked unclean with all manner of staff trampling through it.We will not go back and urge you to go to one of the other fine establishments on the Royal Mile.

music and drink good - food not!

Firstly...this is a good pub! the drink is reasonable, the entertainment was great (Graeme E Pearson), the atmosphere was friendly and the other drinkers too!

Great as long as you don't have to eat here - and if you are in the centre of Edinburgh you certainly shouldn't have to!
